Did I negatively affect my FUE by using topical Vitamin E oil
May 28, 2018
I had an FUE two week ago (1600 grafts). 48 hrs afterwards, I started using pure Vitamin E oil on the Donor area as a moisturizer and to help loosen scabs and used it up till post op Day 9. However, after considering Vit E can easily be absorbed through the skin and into the bloodstream (especially broken skin), I have become concerned. Vitamin E oil is a known inhibitor of Veg-F, which is responsible for angiogenesis after transplant. Is it possible that I stunted vascularization of my grafts?
